Escape presents “The Second Class Passenger,” episode 4801, originally broadcast January 10, 1948. This West Coast airing of the CBS suspense series adapts Perceval Gibbon’s 1913 short story, with William N. Robson serving as writer and producer.
During a shore excursion from a German mail steamer in Mozambique, mild-mannered passenger Dawson agrees to retrieve a fellow traveler’s heavy bronze curio. As night and tropical rain close in, a shortcut through the port’s unfamiliar streets leads him into mounting danger. Harry Bartell stars as Dawson, with Jeannette Nolan and Cathy Lewis.
Escape presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
